Mean And Variance Polarization

Cauchy Distribution does not have a mean, but

0x.f(x)dx=02x2π(1+x4)dx=12

when we consider both θ and θ

E{x}=212=2

The emitted photons, assuming that θ is uniformly distributed, <θ<, has an expected value of 2.

But,

x2.f(x)dx=2x3π(1+x4)dx=12πln(x4+1)

does not converge for all values of θ, however for the range 0xπ2,

E{x2}=0.31169

in which case, over the same range,

E{x}=0.314044

and the variance is,

Var{x}=20.31169(20.314044)2

Var{x}=0.22889,   σ=Var{x}=0.4784

Polarization mean and variance has little meaning, compared to mode at 143.
